description: |+
ARM's Versatile Express platform were built as reference designs for exploring
multicore Cortex-A class systems. The Versatile Express family contains both
32 bit (Aarch32) and 64 bit (Aarch64) systems.
The board consist of a motherboard and one or more daughterboards (tiles). The
motherboard provides a set of peripherals. Processor and RAM "live" on the
tiles.
The motherboard and each core tile should be described by a separate Device
Tree source file, with the tile's description including the motherboard file
using an include directive. As the motherboard can be initialized in one of
two different configurations ("memory maps"), care must be taken to include
the correct one.
When a new generation of boards were introduced under the name "Juno", these
shared to many common characteristics with the Versatile Express that the
"arm,vexpress" compatible was retained in the root node, and these are
included in this binding schema as well.
The root node indicates the CPU SoC on the core tile, and this
is a daughterboard to the main motherboard. The name used in the compatible
string shall match the name given in the core tile's technical reference
manual, followed by "arm,vexpress" as an additional compatible value. If
further subvariants are released of the core tile, even more fine-granular
compatible strings with up to three compatible strings are used.

it is stricter and always has two compatibles.
